need to arrive in the Narthex at 9:00 and be prepared to greet
the children when they arrive. You will be free to leave at 9:30.

YOUTH GROUP Donate 40 Things for 40 Days - Lent is
about preparing for Easter and meditating on the crucifixion
and resurrection of Jesus. One way that people prepare is by
making sacrifices in their lives. As a church, we are taking on
the challenge of donating one thing each day during Lent.
These donations could include clothes, books, cd’s, electronics,
household items, etc. We will be collecting your donations at
church at the end of Lent and donating them to various
community agencies. Please join us in taking on this challenge
as we prepare for Easter!
